    Abstract: A liquid stabilizing baffle system is described in which a plurality of elongated strips are provided, each being formed of a flexible spring material. Each strip includes longitudinal side edges joining opposed ends. At least one end hole is formed in each strip inwardly adjacent each end, and each strip is foldable into a loop configuration with ends overlapping. Fastener members are provided to be received through aligned end holes of the strips. A connector is provided on each strip, configured to enable a plurality of the strips to be linked in succession with the strips folded into loop configurations to form a strand. In a preferred form the connector includes a set of geometric shaped holes formed through the strips in the loops, and a similarly shaped bar threaded through the holes to prevent relative rotation of the loops relative to one another.
